		<description>As a kid, I never understood peoples over conceptualized take on sex. Which is were the whole &#039;gay man = womens brains&#039; thing comes from. It reeks of a deep fear of homosexuality that has been so common amongst &#039;gay&#039; identified men. 

That whole &#039;it&#039;s &quot;normal&quot; because gay men are like women&#039; is so childish. 

People are still trying to justify homosexuality based on the false fairy tale concepts of any given God or text.

When will we ever evolve?

The other thing that has always annoyed the shit out of me, is when people say that &#039;Gay&#039; men are more like women because gay men are sensitive. That somehow sensitivity reflects, not our human-ness but is in fact related to how much spoof I can get on my face, or whether someone has tits or not.
 
From experience, all sentient beings, all forms of life are sensitive - we can&#039;t help it - it&#039;s our very nature. 

I think what people are refering to, when they say &quot;sensitive&quot; are really &quot;feelings&quot; and &quot;emotions&quot; which are the conceptual after thoughts of any given experience. 

In other words - it&#039;s all the chit chatter in the head which de-sensitizes the actual experience by turning that moment into pure concepts. So, women and gay men are &#039;sensitive&#039; because they destroy the joy of the moment by over conceptualizing a past event, and therefore while being all caught up in &#039;an old story&#039; they are in fact being insensitive by missing the current moment. 

Your sense&#039;s are after all, spontaneous. They are not &quot;feelings&quot; which are thought based. And, yes, thoughts are also spontaneous - but the story that they tell are of events gone by - a re-telling if you like - which is mostly bound to be false due to the nature of memory. 

Men, being less obsessively conceptual are, in fact, more in tune with thier natural sensitive impulses. 

So women and &quot;gay&quot; men think too much so that makes them sensitive? 

How backwards!</description>
